ABSTRACT:
An idle speed control system for a marine propulsion system controls the amount of fuel injected into the combustion chamber of an engine cylinder as a function of the error between a selected target speed and an actual speed. The speed can be engine speed measured in revolutions per minute or, alternatively, it can be boat speed measured in nautical miles per hour or kilometers per hour. By comparing target speed to actual speed, the control system selects an appropriate pulse with length for the injection of fuel into the combustion chamber and regulates the speed by increasing or decreasing the pulse width.
